Since its inception in 2019, Remote has been tearing down geographic barriers, offering companies everywhere the power to hire and manage their international teams with unprecedented ease.Key Takeaways:➡️ Enter Marcelo Lebre: co-founder of Remote, visionary of a digital workforce landscape altered long before pandemic pandemonium hit.➡️ Remote's sprint to unicorn stardom, fueled by $150 million, is a testament to their game-changing approach to simplifying global employment.➡️ Marcelo's leap from engineering to startup wizardry was sparked by an unwavering conviction: global opportunities should know no borders.➡️ Leading the vanguard, Remote has tackled the complexities of legitimately managing a worldwide workforce, outpacing the competition before they knew the race had begun.➡️ Beyond evolving their platform to serve global businesses big and small, Remote's influence reaches into worldwide policy debates on the future shape of work.Notable Quotes:"You will never have the perfect thing until you craft it, because other people will not do it for you.""Our biggest competition is our own shadow and not any other brand or name.""If you have a true passion about something, it's worth much more than anyone being forced into learning or doing something.""We wanted to create an experience both for the people being paid, employees, contractors, you name it. But for the employer as well, no matter what, what kind of relationship you have.""The future of work is being defined not just by the offer, but the need of people that today have access to tremendously fast Internet, super powerful computers, and knowledge that can traverse the world in a split second."
